senate bill met with little opposition In
the house yesterday, and the indications
are that the 'rOmpkins bill will pass the

no longer much doubt but what the
Blood party will be Ousted from the
management Of the road. The other
side has made friends ever since the
question began being agitated in the

The Interstate CommiSSio n

WASHINGTON. July 16.-The interstate
commission has decided that any rail-
road lying wholly within one state, but
which makes rates and issues bills to
points IN another state, is 80 far as that
traffic is concerned, subject to the pro-
visions of the interstate law The Cent
raj Vermont railroad on June 90 gave
notice of an advance of freight rates to
take effect July 5. Chaplin & Co. of Mil
waukee claimed under the interstate
law the right to ten days. notice. John
Portehouse, general manager, in his re-
ply said: 81 do not know of any clause
In the law requiring ten days notice
from Milwaukee TO NewEngland points"
Chaplin & Co. sent this reply to the COM
mission, and Mr.. Portehouse has been
informed by the commission that the
law does require ten days notice, and
must be complied with. The commits
sion expect to be able to conclude all
public hearings with parties desire to
bring forward before the close of this
month. About Aug. recess will be
taken. The commission then expects to
visit various portions of the Northern
States, when public sessions will be held.
The dressed beef cases will probably be
heard at Chicago, and other questions
relating to Northwestern roads may be
taken up at Minneapolis.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our Regular correspondent
WYsHINGToN, ID. c., July II, 1873

WASHINGTON, ID. c., July II, 1887.
Truth and justice compel me to note
the fact that even in this paragon of a
reform administration the cloven foot is
plainly shown and politics has broken
out with vengeance and violence Who'll
ly unexpected, at least by the Mug
wumps. aIlude to the shabby action
of the son-in-law of the soulless Standard
Oil Co., otherwise known as Secretary
Whitney, in turning over the entire pat
ronage of the New York and Brooklyn
Navy Yards TO the Democratic bosses
of those great cities. By such partisan
and despicable conduct the Secretary
prociaims TO the country his resumption
of the convenient role of pot house
politician of the infamous Tweed school,
where, believe, Mr.. Whitney took his
first political lessons.
President Cleveland's second round
with the Grand Army of the Republic,
like the first resulted in his utter dis
comfiture-the third will be in Novem-
Der, 1SSS-and they do say that Rebel
battle flags and st. Louis, are tabooed
subjects at the White House. Grand
Army men at the Capital generally re-
gard the Presidents timely declination
of his proposed st. Louis visit as a hap
py radiance of an unwelcome guest,
but at the same time, they Indignantly
and scornfully repel and resent the false
and foolish insinuation, so unworthy OF
one holding such a great Office, that he
wished to avoid probable insults on ac-
count of acts done as official duties. Mr..
Cleveland's grave allusion to ''threats of
personal violence and HARM" are posi-
lively childish and ridiculous, and show
that he is absolutely begging the ques-
ton. Another strange thing is his
speaking of loyal Missouri, which fur
nished 10000 Union troops, as a South
ern State. Is it possible that little Dan
Lamont no longer gives his master
points on geography and history? Real
ly it seems so.
The people of Washington, especially
the medical fraternity, are beginning to
look forward with pleasant anticipations
to the meeting of the International Con-
gress in this city next September, for
which purpose Congress only appropri-
ated $4,000. which memorable event
promises to be of great Importance to
that noble profession that has done
more than any other agency for thsswell
being of suffering humanity.
An important modification of thetivil
service rules is the repeal of the clause
limiting the age ofthe candidate to forty
FIVE years; one effect of this will be to
open the way for ex-Confederate SOL
diers, most of whom have hitherto been
excluded under that regulation.
Inclusive of fourth-class postmasters,
the number of ''chief officers of the
government is 56,134, and In these there
have been Al 1892 changed under Presi.
dent Cleveland, which is a better show
ing than many Democrats supposed pos
sible. Washington is one of the few
large cities of the country still having a
Republican postmaster, but there are
strong indications of a change very soon.

EX-SENATOR WINDOW, a gentleman

interviewed yesterday by Minneapolis
Tribune reporter and yielded up the
following bit of talk on the President,
the flag episode and the letter:

ter was too long. read it carefully, and
do not think Cleveland had any
thought of bringing division in the
Grand Army, as has been reported. 1t
seemed to me that he was annoyed at
the way things bad gone, and wrote in
vexation. | do not believe he looked
ahead far enough to think of bringing
any rupture in q. A. r. ranks. think
it was rather foolish for him to give up
his Western visit on account of any
feeling with the Grand Army. 1t would
broaden his ideas good deal to come
West. will even 90 SO far as to say
that do not think a man qualified to
be President until he has met Western
people and seen the Western country.
Cleveland made great mistake in his
order to return the flags captured by
Union troops from the Confederates,
and altogether he has been having rough
water lately. Cleveland will, undoubt.
eddy, be renominated for the presidency
as the Democrats have no one else they
dare put up. | do not think, however,
that he stands as good a chance fol
election as before. There are changes
going on that seem to me to strengthen
the Repubiican party, and | look for diff.
ferent results at the next election"

At the last session of Congress con-
siderable sum was appropriated for the

that these stations shall be established
only in places where sufficient protec-
ton is afforded by law to the fisheries.
For the purpose of investigating these
conditions and of making some observa-
tions relative to the propagation and
distribution of young fish, Major Fergu-
son, the assistant commissioner, has de-
tailed Col. Mcdonald, whose work on
the commission has been of valuable

THE following is synopsis of the res
olutions adopted by the Dakota division
and admission convention held at HUI
ron last week:
"We are unalterably opposed to adj
mission as a whole. We declare for
division on that seventh standard paral-
lei. We urge the importance of a full
vote on this question. The convention
affirms the right of the people about to
be admitted TO the Union, to designate
their State boundries, subject to mod
ifcation by Congress with their consent.
All considerations unite in debating for
di vision, in accordance with plan sub
mitted by an act of the Territorial legis-
lature to the suffrage of the people in
No vember, 1886. We protest against
the tyranny of Congress in refusing adj
mission, and appeal to the people of the
Union for support. We approve of the
efforts of Senator Dawes and others to
secure the opening of the great Sioux
reservation, and ask the President and
Secretary Of the Interior to recommend
to the Fiftieth Congress the passage of a
measure providing for the opening for
settlement of this reservation"
The convention was remarkably unan-
imous upon division, Republicans and
Democrats alike being enthusiastic. II
is certain the demand is being pushed
more vigorously than ever before.

Statistics Showing Comparisons
Between Exports and Imports Dur
ing the Past Week.
New YORK, July 16.-R. G. Dun &
Co., in their Weekly Reciew say:
Exports of breadstuff, cotton, animals,
animal products and petroleum in June
were So, SOS, 277, against $3S,63S,224 for
the same month last year. Breadstuffs
increased So, 100000, and cattle $27l 900
Cotton decreased 100000, provisions
100000. and oil $4,000. With other
exports as last year, the aggregate for
June would be $5O,OOO,OOO, against
about 100000 imports, making the
excess of imports for three months
81 100000. Cotton held above foreign
market accounts for $25,0OO,O0O of this
loss, and recent failures indicate that
this speculation was not wiser than the
one in wheat. Unloading of those who
bought wheat after Kershaw's failure
has depressed No. 2 red here to S24c,
a fall of over cents for the week, and
249c since June 30. With exports of
153, 629, 900 bushels for the past year. the
stock carried over includes $4,000, 900
invisible supply. 100000 in California.
and certainly 100000 in farmers
hands, besides all -four on hand, facts
which establish the correctness of esti-
mates made months ago that the sur
plus would exceed 50,0O0,G00 bushels.
The business failures during the last
seven days number for the United
States, 149; Canada, 30; fatal, 179; COM
pared with 154 last week and 1873 for the
corresponding week of last year.

PRESIDENT CLEVELAND has changed
AZ 1892 of the 1914 chief officers in the
civil service. Not only is this fact, but
it cannot be denied that in a majority of
cases the new incumbents are or were
political bosses and wire workers in the
Democratic party. This is the "reform"
which the cranks of the G.. w. Curtis
stripe endorse as being superior TO Re-
publican administration. Upon it will
be based the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS cry
of 1888, Cleveland and civil service re-
form" The farce would be highly ludi-
crous did it not but lightly hide the dan
gers to good government which lie in
the supremacy of the Solid South and
the corrupt political bosses of the North
ern Democracy.
